The Academy

We have previously:

contemplated the physical environment of the Time Patrol Academy here;

assessed Academy training here;

compared the Academy to the Patrol's Pleistocene Lodge here;

compared it to Jack Havig's main base here and here;

discussed the domestic gadgets in the Academy here;

summarized Wanda's time at the Academy here and here;

listed Patrol activities in five epochs here and here.

I had forgotten about these ten previous posts so it might be helpful to remind blog readers about them?

Kaor, Paul!

You should have also mentioned how the training given by the Time Patrol to its agents resembles that given by the Intelligence Academy to officers of the Imperial Terrestrial Naval Intelligence Corps.

And in THE REBEL WORLDS we get a good glimpse of that training as regards how the Intelligence Academy taught cadets how to learn languages, both human and non-human, as quickly as possible. And Ydwyr the Seeker mentioned in A CIRCUS OF HELLS how he understood that Flandry's education about Merseia necessarily focused on it being the political and military enemy of the Terran Empire.
